This journal will document my 7 year plan for World Domination â¦. Kidding

This journal will hopefully document multiple years of successful trading and my rise to success if not then you will witness an Epic failure and will know exactly what not to do to trade successfully.
My goals:
1) Make money
2) Beat the S&P 500
3) make and run a successful fund
4) retire at 28

I started trading about 2 1/2 years ago I began my journey in the forex market and did not pick up a book or watch a seminar or have a mentor , I begun the purest way you could I opened a micro forex live account and figured out how it worked by trial and error , the advantage in the way I started is I had no idea what others were doing I just tried to understand and create my own path to extract money from the markets and hopefully by doing this without any input from what already exists I would be thinking outside the box.
After hundreds of methods millions of back tested trades and thousands of live trades I was not making head way with forex I was shore I was going to make money on the long term but it wasnât going quite as fast as I had hoped, I didnât feel absolutely confortable and was always waiting for the worst case scenario to play out, so I began trying to figure out what how and where I would be at easy trading, I have found it to be in the stock market in a list of about 400 us stocks and iv been trading these stocks successfully since 4 months ago (I know itâs a short time) but I know this account with the current trading style will last a lifetime and I believe it will grow considerably.

Today was a busy day, i decided to have a fire sale halfway through the day and liquidated all my positions I did this to get rid of some of the trades I had opened nearly 3 months ago and werenât going any were.
I sold the following :
BFS -111.98 $
RPM +8.42 $
PG -104.85$
CSP -23.38$
CTL - 74.27$
GHI -25.00$
NRF -11.94$
MSFT -63.38 $
NWN -43.58 $
REM -15.35 $
UVV +12.70 $
IEF +20.10 $
PLW +23.88 $
MIN +12.27 $
TLT +16.63 $
UBSI +31.63 $
DVY +31.64 $
GPC +30.49 $
Total = -285.97 $
The losses incurred are not as bad as they seem as because im happy with the profit made up to now and im up about 2.4% this month no need to risk the gains I already have by keeping losing positions open in a hope that they will turn.

At yesterdays close the unrealised p&l = -68.3$
Iâm currently holding 24018.34 $ worth of stock
I have been making new highs in the account value for the past 4 days so Iâm questioning whether I should buy more stock or ease off a bit till a pullback in my own account value.

Just 2 more days till the end of the month things are looking good as long as i donât loose much and the S&P 500 doesnât move up much i will have a positive month and have beaten the S&P 500 this month, Iâm happy to see the ES futures ticking down pre market as i have nothing open i cant loose anything.
